Mr.. Enron: Would it not he
wise if the Board of School Directors
would call the patrons Of the colored
school together and compromise the
matter concerning the teachers? 1t
seems to me it would be wise, for
several reasons: first, There may be
a cause why the people do not pat
ronize the school; and it may be "A
just cause; If so, the Directors only
can furnish the remedy, which | be-
lieve they will do. And if the peo-
pie have not this just cause, they will
be made TO see their error, and they
can then be governed accordingly.
Second: There are two teachers en-.
ployed, besides other expenses, Of
house rent, fre-wood, &C., which is
eating up the public funds, and from
the expenditure of which no benefit
is being derived. OF course it is
right to pay teachers; and in order
to have good teachers, to pay them
good wages; at the same time, il is
not best to pay them when, by forge
of circumstances, they cannot render
adequate service, as in the case OF
our present teachers. | know that
the teachers feel embarrassed to
some extent, knowing as they sure
ly do, and feeling that they are get.
ting their pay out Of the peoples
hard earnings when the number Of
pupils will not justify the outlay o
one teachers salary. Again, anoth
er reason why the Directors shoult
do something is, that there is ne
gulf between the two, and without re
terring to one point Of prejudice, le
me say that the interests of the tw,
races are ST. united and dependen
upon each other that one cannot b,
affected without doing violence t,
the other. Now, we have had SOM
changes in tn. officials occupyin!
the Offices Of the. county, which W
were told would result to the ad
vantage of the general good; and i
this patty will do mofe for tn
colored than any other, we want t.
see it manifested by our Director
who are prominent members of tn
party nov in power.

SENATOR BERRY on THE MRS. Lo-
GAN PENSION BILL.

Congressional Record, Jan. Z; Mr.,
Berry. Mr.. President, if this bill
passes without objection, and with
out the yeas and nays, each senator
present is committed to the support
of its provisions. | have no hope
that anything which i can say will
prevent the passage of the bill, but
] am not in favor Of its passage.
If Mrs. Logan be allowed $1,000 ID
year there can be no reason why the
widow OF each inaj general who
served in the late war should not also
be allowed $1,000 a year; and if the
major generals, why not of the briga-
d;crs, of the colonels, of the majors,
of the captains, of the privates?
There is no difference that | can see
in principle, and there ought to be
no difference in practice.
A few years ago Mrs. Lincoln was
allowed pension as widow of a
president. That was made a prece-
lcnr, and to-day each widow of All
ev-president receives a pension OF
$1,000 a year.
1t is claimed that the bill for Mrs.
Hancock makes precedent for the
granting of this pension, and so this
will be for other cases. l believe
that granting pensions indiscriminat-
ly aud recklcssly aud for such large
amounts is detrimental to the best
interests of the country, and | an
opposed to it.
] wish to say, however, that M
prejudice against the character o.
Gen. Logan, or want of appreciation
of the services be rendered the coun
try, induces this opposition. Their,

Burlington weekly free press. [volume] (Burlington, Vt.) 1866-1928, 1887-09-16

From the Albany Evening Journal
The farmers Of this State aud of Yer
mont will not be pleased with recent
ruling of the treasury department. The
collector of customs at Burlington, Vt,
asked a ruling recently as to the tariff to
be placed upon cream imported from
Canada into the United States. No spe-
cite provision for cream separated from
milk was found in the tariff law and the
department held that its separation did
not constitute manufacture and that 1t
could only be taxed at the rate Of 10 per
cent ad vaorem as a new and unlnanu-
featured article.
The Canadian Dominion Is Il heavy but
ter producing country. For years Canadian
dairymen have asked for free trade or for
reciprocity 10y which they could send their
butter across the line and compete with
United States butter. To protect the in
tertsts OF American faImers tariff on
butter of four cents pounds has been I'M
posed tor many years, and THIS has ktpt
Canadian butter from entering toanN great
extent into competition with home product,
though 1t can be manufactured and Solu
more cheaply than State butter.
The invention in recent years OF ma
chimes for quickly and economically sep
arating cream from milk has suggested
to the butter makers of Canada method
by Wnlcn lney might enter INTO compell-
ton with our farmers. To send milk
across The border would involve heavy ex-
peuse for transportation, but separating
the cream from the milk and sending it
across the line to be made into butter
does not add materially to the cost of the
| latter product. The administration with
its decided free trade tendencies has made
ruling ia this case obviously against the
! interests of State farmers. 1t would have
been easy to have held tnGt the removal of
the cream from the milk by the new me
| chanlcal contrlVances made cream man
ufactured article and subjected 1t TO a
duty that would have been almost pro
hibtory. But following the ideas of the
| free trade democracy, the department
holds that cream Is a raw and unmauutac-
tured ice and therefore subject 20 u
duty Of only II per cent ad vdlOrem, or
| less than half the duty on butter.
| The result will be that the butter max
ers, especially OF Vermont and northern
New York, Will he compelled to meet the
active competition of Canadian cream,
which can be brought over the line, made
into butter and Sold AT a much lower
| price than American butter can be pro
duced. This is what free trade will dc
every time it finds an 0peniug-injurS
home interests and aid foreign producers.
